We took a slower and less aggressive, spacey kind of approach with the new album. We wanted to conjure a hypnotic atmosphere that perpetuates through the record, yet we wanted to cover a lot of ground within that atmosphere, conceptually and emotionally. We infused a lot of very personal ideas and feelings into these songs, almost too much to list. I'’s almost unnecessary to list... all I can really tell people is, "A Nest Of Ravens In The Throat Of Time" is our lifeblood, our mission statement, and really the only thing we give a fuck about right now.
